Saying No and Staying Nice

Registration

It’s a short, all-too-well-trodden path from yes to overwhelmed – and then on to frustrated and resentful.

Yet it’s hard to say no to someone we like – someone needing help – and especially our boss!

In this program, we’ll avoid the old clichés (no oxygen masks required!) while learning practical, applicable, easy-to-remember ways to say no while still staying nice.

Attendees will even discover that saying no in the right ways helps build, not break, relationships.

3 key learning objectives

1. Realize that you really can say no without alienating people

2. Learn why focus is the key to avoiding overwhelm-by-yes

3. Choose between three primary ways of saying No (while staying nice)

4. Bonus: Discover why you shouldn’t try to put clothing on the skeleton!
